Ski jumper Kaimar Vagul loses support from German Ski Association

Estonian ski jumper Kaimar Vagul has ended his cooperation with the German Ski Association (DSV). Vagul stated that the primary reason for the decision is a lack of resources within the DSV following the Olympic season, noting that the federation has limited funds even for its own athletes.

Moving forward, Vagul will be trained exclusively by his father, Virgo Vagul, who is a ski jumping coach. The athlete also announced a change in equipment, switching to Van Deer skis this winter.

Vagul, who grew up in Finland before moving to Germany in 2021, recently competed in the Summer Grand Prix, where he finished fifth overall and secured a second-place finish in Wisla, Poland. His future goals include scoring points in the World Cup and competing for the junior world championship title in Otepää, Estonia.
